Hi, 

I'm not a part of the team, but I think I recognize your error as being related
to file permissions. My guess is that your first installation was done by 
root (or a user whose default permissions don't include letting you overwrite
files). As a result, when you try to 'make install', the task fails due to 
faulty
permission. 

Good luck!
